I finally have free time! Yay!It's been a grueling semester for me, but I managed to sneak by my Spanish Literature Senior Seminar with a B+! (Honestly, I was expecting no better than a "C"...) If all goes well, I'll be getting my diploma by late June... Aaagh!!

Anywho, I should get cracking on these translations, shouldn't I?! I am honored that the people behind the recently-uploaded Battle Spirits (English!!) Wiki are using my translations for the flavor text. I've decided to continue through ("trudging along" if you will) these Sets before finally catching up with the current cardlist. Of course, this doesn't mean you'll only see old cards from me until then. I intend to post a "sneak peek" thread for upcoming cards similar to Bandai's own version on the Battle Spirits website, so keep an eye out! In the meantime, please look after me everyone?

Continuing with the constellations-in-Spirit-form motif, the eleventh Japanese Battle Spirits booster set, CONSTELLATION SAGA, Chapter II ~The Blazing Sun~ (星座編第二章：灼熱の太陽 SEIZAHEN, Dainishou: "Shakunetsu no Taiyou") [Released 11 February 2011; 90 cards = 46 Commons/18 Uncommons/12 Rares/8 Master Rares/6 X-Rares + 1 Promo Extra!] features Sieg-Apollodragon in his final evolutionary stage as Rising Apollodragon, Dragonlord of the Sun, as well as Siegwurm Nova'sdarker counterpart... Plus, we meet the Zodiac Trinity of Air—Aquarius,Gemini, and Libra—and the Beast Deities of the Outer Solar System [Uranus, Neptune, and (the now "dwarf planet" ) Pluto], who apparently seem to have some beef with the Astral Dragonlords Eight...? As mentioned before, more Otherrealm lore on the constellations will be rampant in this set. Keep your eyes peeled and ENJOY!

Concerning the Battle Spirits English wiki, your translations are great. I trust them over my own (which have a tendency to get overly literal), so I'm glad to have them. Though, if you don't mind, I made some slight alterations here and there to keep them consistent with Bandai's wording, just because I want all of it to match. Since you translate some of the spirit names differently, for example.

No wonder those purple stuff hate braves! At least one of them, The Plutosacred beast, was used in the anime by a bad guy.....Nice translations, also great work on the rulebook. That cleared up some stuff on the brave rulings.

Whew... After having delved so long in both this set and the unexpectedly LONG Battle Spirits Rule Manual, I can finally focus more on catching up! I debated whether or not to include the bonus promo at the end, but as several of the main X-Rares of the Expansion Sets are often connected to their promo counterparts through these campaigns (Sieg-Apollodragon is the best example, I'll explain by Set 13), I figured it was best to show them anyways. Especially with the recent accident that erased all those other fan translations.... (For the record, I mean absolutely no offense to anyone.)

Not to be outdone by his solar rival, Strike-Siegwurm the Moonlight Dragon goes through his own shining evolution! Plus the Zodiac Trinity of Earth makes their appearance as the battle between the Astral Dragonlords and the Outer System Beast Deities reach a boiling point... with shocking and unprecedented results!! These and more surprises await in the next Expansion Set of Battle Spirits!
